Escape With The Ball

Mommy Doesn't Know Him Well

Catherine, who hadn't slept a wink, was unpacking; she hadn't brought much back home, and packing was even easier.

Sitting on the edge of the bed, Catherine was fidgeting with a picture frame in her hand.

The picture frame shows a bright young girl with a radiant smile following a teenager. The girl's expression is cold, as if she is full of dislike, and an arm is betrayed on her shoulders.

It was five years ago when Catherine and Mark were childhood sweethearts.

In those days, though seemingly cold, Mark never failed to respond to her requests.

Today ......

Catherine's heart ached slightly at the thought of last night's experience.

"Mommy, you're finally home."

At the sound of the voice, Catherinereturnedk to her senses and said, "Vivian, did you sleep well?"

Vivian nodded good-naturedly, got up, and moved toward Catherine; seeing the picture frame, Catherine had been too late to hide.

"Mommy, if it isn't that uncle from yesterday!"

Hearing this shocked Catherine, and her face instantly went cold, "Vivian, you've seen him?"

The last few years abroad had been to hide Vivian, who did not want her daughter to be drawn into the family's interests!

"The day I got off the plane in the advertisement,nt ah, look at the pho, too, and I feel more li,ke Oh ~ Mo m, my you and this uncle know?"

"Mommy doesn't know him very well, and when we finish packing, we're going back to England."

Hearing Vivian's words, Catherine was relieved, but the thought of leaving made her more anxious.

With that thought, the movements of his men quickened.

Vivian sniffed with confusion, "Mommy, we're leaving so soon; I haven't met my husband yet!"

After saying that, she pointed to the picture of her idol that she had purposely kept in her suitcase.

Catherine couldn't help the black line on her forehead. She was confused about where her daughter had learned all this stuff when she was only four.

"Catherine, get up for breakfast."

Just as Catherine reviewed what had gone wrong with her education, a gentle voice came from the door.

Marina pushed her way in and saw the room's frame. Her eyes grew anxious. Katherine, what did you do with the suitcase?"

"Mom, I'm going to take Vivian back to England today." Kathryn's face flashed with a hint of guilt.

"No, you haven't come back for four years; your father and I have been looking forward to your return; how can you be so ungrateful!"

Watching Catherine falter, Marina followed up.

"You've grown up and can take care of yourself, but Vivian is still such a small child; how can she take care of herself alone~ You're taking a child abroad like this, aren't you killing mom!"

Marina said, sobbing uncontrollably, unable to stop herself from pounding her fists against her heart as she cried.

"It's all my fault and your father's. We can't protect you and Vivian because we're incompetent. Oh, oh, oh..."

"Mom, how can I blame you, guy? My daughter is ungrateful and can't be by your side anymore to care for you and da. Don't ever say that." Catherine couldn't help but panic when she saw Marina in tears and followed suit.

"Kathryn, you and Vivian stay; don't go anymore, okay? Your father and I are old. We might last a few more years. If you leave, you might never see us again!"

Catherine's heart Microsoft, in the end, it was her parents. When had she ever seen her mother so grief-stricken if she hadn't been pushed to the brink of extinction?

"Your father did not let me tell you that, before you returned to China, the company's capital chain was broke. Your father went to borrow loan sharks to solve the urgent need at that time, but the company has just slowed down. Where can I Ipaybackc? Those debt collectors have already blocked your father onc and threatened to break his arm if he could not pay back!"

The acid in the center of Marina's eyes was thick enough to overflow.

Catherine's body shook at the sound of her voice, and she looked at her mother incredulously.

"Mom, why didn't you guys tell me earlier!"

"You've given enough to this family; how can we afford to burden you with this again ......"

Marina hugged Catherine with uncontrollable tears.

"Mom, I'm not leaving; I'll help Dad pay for this.

Catherine closed her eyes slightly, hiding the sadness underneath them, and spoke with a quiver.

"Really? Catherine, you're willing to stay?"

Marina looked at Catherine in surprise and was instantly happy.

Mom, you must promise me that Vivian's business must never be revealed! I will never allow anyone to use her for profit!"

A cold light flashed in Catherine's eyes.

It was the first coldness Marina had ever seen in Catherine's eyes again, and she hastily smiled and nodded in agreement.

"You and Vivian are my heart; how could I let anyone hurt you!"
